1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveTo assess health-related quality of life and associated factors among trans people.

methodsThis was a cross-sectional study conducted in 2023. The 12-Item Short- Form Health Survey was used with trans women, trans men, travestis, and non-binary people who were users of a health service in Manaus, capital city of Amazonas state.

resultsA total of 71 participants were included: 36 trans women; 29 trans men; 2 travestis; and 4 non-binary people, with a mean age 30.1 years. The physical component scored 44.6±7.8, and the mental component scored 38.4±11.1. The emotional aspect with a score of 16.0±1.1, was the most affected domain. Paid employment was associated with better mental quality of life, while having lived in street situations was associated with worse physical quality of life, with mean differences of 4.4 (95%CI 2.3;6.9) and -3.3 (95%CI -7.7;2.3) respectively.

conclusionAmong trans people, the mental component was more affected than the physical, with the greatest impairment observed in the emotional aspect. Socioeconomic characteristics were associated with quality of life.
